PRAYER: For one and all

For a time when humankind is tragically divided, yet so eager for universal goals of peace to unite with, how about a universal prayer with something in it for everyone.

I want to thank our Mother Earth

for this beautiful day.

A day when people all over

gather to honor

a great champion of peace.

As we look over milestones past

we gain hope and faith

that someday, sometime,

everyone everywhere

will be comfortable;

when the spirit of Jesus,

and all our giants of peace,

will run deep in the soul

of everyone.
